Mon 22nd SOTD Soap Stirling Hipster New 1st Use Brush Yaqi 26mm Mysterious Space Tuxedo Razor GEM Clog Pruf Blade GEM Stainless 1st Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Thayers + Hyaluronic + TGS Abysso
Finally tested the last of the Stirling soap samples. Pleasant scent but perhaps below mild...would be better if stronger. The lather was creamy & slick!
Shave with razor paired with the blade was good. Reasonably smooth and comfortable during the 3passes for a dfs+ result and 1 micro creeper. Nice aftershaves.
New soap day. @LNHC "The Down Low. Scent and performance was fantastic! Paired extremely well with the Obsession for Men cologne. Hope you had a great Monday.

Tue 23rd SE SOTD Soap B&M Cheshire Brush Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia Razor Yaqi AC Brass (alternated between the original brass handle and another heavier Yaqi brass handle) Blade Feather ProGuard 9th Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Thayers + Hyaluronic + Reuzel Wood & Spice
I absolutely love this aromatic soap scent! Thick, creamy, and slick too...
Shave with the razor with the well-used blade was another smooth, comfortable, and efficient 3passes without any issues for a BBS result. Hmmm...I still prefer the original handle. Very enjoyable session.
Ugghhh...I managed to drop my brush in the sink after lathering. [Sigh]. That somewhat threw me off my game and just stopped chasing it ending with an acceptable DFS for the day.
The post shave elixir from @LNHC has a smooth buttery balm consistency. It was an excellent finish to this combo in both aroma and hydration.
